VIDEO: Black Friday madness in the US but what about closer to home?

An American woman has been caught on camera snatching a food steamer from young child in fight to pick up bargains

The little boy manages to grab one of the in-demand veg steamers – but a woman appears from nowhere and pinches it from his grasp

The clip shows a swarm of people run for the in-demand steamer and end up toppling on top of the boxes in over-excitement.

As everyone frantically tries to snatch a box, a little boy managed to take one.

But out of nowhere a woman appears and snatches it right out of his hands.

The boy’s mum is furious and – while holding two vegetable steamers that she has picked up – she tries to pinch the other woman’s box too.

Violence has kicked off again across the US as desperate shoppers battle for bargain deals.

Meanwhile in Scotland we’re being treated to a much calmer Black Friday as the expected hoards of shoppers have not arrived.

Stores had taken extra precautions this year, after warnings from police that firms needed to ensure they had enough security staff on in case of any trouble.
